azurite: (anzu's problems)
[livejournal.com profile] geniusgirl was the one responsible for this meme in the first place, but due to the particular (and quite odd!) fics requested by people all around the board, her request (the first one made) was the last one I got to. I have to admit, it's tough duplicating the mood or style of some of these stories!

Geniusgirl wanted something that took one week after "Eat Your Words, Beautiful," probably my most clichéd fic ever. So here it is. (I was tempted to title this "This Is All Your Fault," but I already have another oneshot by that name. HAH!)

Put your faith in me and I'll show you )
azurite: (Default)
In 2001, two years after having gained fame with Stray Dog, Hiromu Arakawa launched this bracing series, now entertaining readers worldwide in a 12th installment. This time around, life turns 180 degrees for the Brothers Elric as the twosome combine their skills with those of Prince Lin. Together, they hatch a plan to trap Gluttony. Meanwhile, Colonel Roy Mustard takes advantage of a rare opportunity when a skeleton in the closet of Führer President King Bradley appears suddenly, possibly altering forever the balance of power.
-From March My Borders Monthly manga section, emphasis mine.

Someone ([livejournal.com profile] ceruleansan?) please tell me Viz hasn't really mistranslated Roy's surname as MUSTARD. I know they're not the super-fantastic-always-the-best of translators, but I was really getting geared up into investing in Fullmetal Alchemist, but if they've made such a joke of Roy's name... I don't know.

Tell me that it's just some sort of creepy Borders joke or a bad pun or some miscommunication, or...

Oh god, COLONEL ROY MUSTARD!? What does that make Winry, WINRY SCARLETT!? ED GREEN? HAVOC PLUM!?
